Photographs of funny animals today represent a separate genre of photography that literally conquered the Internet. And it seems that nothing can surprise people. However, every day scientists make many amazing discoveries, most of which are in the world of flora and fauna, and the remainder on the comprehension of the physical properties of the unexplored planet Earth.
Instructions
Step 1
A rock climber in Hawaii has an extraordinary talent - he has the ability to climb a waterfall up to 100 meters in height using his mouth in the form of a sucker.
Step 2
Some sharks are viviparous, while others are distinguished by the ability to lay eggs and therefore are called the "mermaid wallet". The embryo inside the egg is a vulnerable and defenseless creature. However, the embryo of a bamboo shark is distinguished by a special ability: it senses the electric field of its enemy, which allows it to "freeze", as it were, and prevent it from being noticed.
Step 3
The researchers concluded that bats-eating spiders live on all continents except Antarctica. The spider species that weave webs, namely the araneomorphic spiders and tarantulas, love to feast on young bats. This prompted scientists to think about how common this phenomenon is around the world. Having studied the analyzes of scientific reports over the past hundred years, scientists have come to the conclusion that about 50 cases of bats eating by spiders have been recorded throughout the world. Basically, mice became prey for spiders in countries with hot climates and in the tropics.
Step 4
Scientists have recorded an unusual pregnancy of a blunt shark that was caught on the coast of Florida. One of the embryos that were inside her womb had two heads. This deformity could have occurred when the embryo began to divide into two parts, while forming twins. However, at some point, the division failed. In the wild, this cub could not survive.
Step 5
Butterflies living in the Amazon rainforest have found a way to survive. Sitting on the shell of a river Amazonian turtle, butterflies drink tears from their eyes. This allows them to replenish the lack of minerals in their body. Since salt is scarce in the eastern part of the Amazon, bees and butterflies have to replenish it in this way.
Step 6
The orchid mantis, like many other insects, is able to mimic this harmless flower. However, unlike other insects that disguise themselves as predators, the mantis is a predator, and thanks to its flower imitation, it attracts prey in the form of bees and butterflies. Scientists have concluded that the praying mantis is the only insect that mimics a flower in order to attract prey.
